MIT Enterprise Forum
The Forum is a non-profit organization dedicated to the entrepreneur community of the greater Washington & Baltimore area.  We are open to the public and we reach out to local start-ups, high technology, venture capitalists, angels, and the professionals who support them. Forums provide excellent opportunities for networking and generate great ideas for growing and building small companies. Several companies hosted by the Forum, have subsequently grown to become stars of the investment and high tech communities.  The Forum is affiliated with the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (M.I.T.), but participation and membership is open to the general public. www.mitef.org
